Living legend Brian Cox has a new memoir coming out (RUNNING), and he did…not hold back. Specifically when it comes to Johnny Depp, who, turns out, he has a lot of opinions on. Like, did I expect Brian Cox to absolutely tear into Jack Sparrow on this fine Monday morning? No, but I’ll take it.
“The guy who directed Pirates was Gore Verbinski, with whom I made The Ring, and he’s a lovely chap but I think I blotted my copybook by turning down the Governor,” Brian wrote in an excerpt from his book Putting the Rabbit in the Hat (via GQ) “It would have been a money-spinner, but of all the parts in that film it was the most thankless, plus I would have ended up doing it for film after film and missed out on all the other nice things I’ve done.”
Fair! And then, of course, there’s this:
“Another thing with Pirates of the Caribbean is that it’s very much the ‘Johnny Depp as Jack Sparrow’ show, and Depp, personable though I’m sure he is, is so overblown, so overrated. I mean, Edward Scissorhands. Let’s face it, if you come on with hands like that and pale, scarred-face make-up, you don’t have to do anything. And he didn’t. And subsequently, he’s done even less. But people love him. Or they did love him. They don’t love him so much these days, of course.”
Genuinely hyperventilating at all of this, but especially “and subsequently, he’s done even less.”
